If you read the entire thread what caused all the confusion and wasted so much time for everyone was the fact the OP never gave info on their vehicle. And by info I mean the production date, along with the VIN and/or model number. Otherwise it's just a bunch of guessing.
I Didn't see where anyone posted a definate size for the nut. What is the actual size?
take one of the other nuts off to your local hardware store (not lowes or home depot because they suck for metric stuff)
My local Ace has fine and course metric sizes
or call/go into your dealer
I'd get them from the dealer. That way you know they've been treated for exterior use, compatible metal, etc. Plus, you need something hard enough that can handle being torqued down to 50+ ft/lbs. I just don't see any hardware store having something like that. Automotive grade nuts and bolts are just...better.
going through this fiasco in my mothers 2001 100 series land cruiser. The thread pitch for the studs is 11x1.0, not something you'll find at a hardware store. I only need to replace the studs in my rear flange which has holes approximately 11.75mm, however my old studs were spinning. the studs I ordered from Toyota (90114-10061) were incorrect as the knurled section is 10mm and the nuts don't fit.. im thinking the stud size is different for the front prop shaft. the original studs I knocked out were 12mm around the knurled section even after they'd spun. will update when I find the correct part number for these studs (rear output flange). -_-
